More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and functionality of a ureteral stent, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes.
The device is specifically designed to stent the ureter and provide drainage of urine, which is a therapeutic intervention aimed at treating medical conditions related to urine flow or ureteral support.

No

The descriptions of the Bander Ureteral Diversion Stent Set and the Dretler Ureteroscopy Stent Set indicate their use for drainage and stenting of the ureter. They are therapeutic devices designed to maintain patency and flow, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly details physical components made of silicone and polyurethane, including stents, wire guides, adapters, and retainers. Performance studies also focus on physical properties and compatibility. There is no mention of software as a component or function of the device.

Based on the provided information, no, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the device as being used for intraoperative placement to stent the ureter and provide drainage of urine. This is a direct medical intervention within the body, not a test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description details physical components like stents, wire guides, and adapters, all designed for insertion and manipulation within the urinary tract. There is no mention of reagents, assays, or any components used for analyzing biological samples.
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical sites mentioned are the ureter and kidney, which are internal organs where the device is physically placed.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies listed (MRI Safety, Dimensional, Tensile Strength, Flow Rate, etc.) are all related to the physical properties and functionality of the device within the body, not to the accuracy or reliability of a diagnostic test.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform any such analysis. It is a medical device used for a therapeutic and drainage purpose.
